Let’s Play Magic 2014 – Part 5

This is part five of a Let’s Play series of Magic 2014 – Duels of the Planeswalkers in campaign mode. In this part we make our first foray into the plane of Zendikar and mix it up with the Teeth of Akoum. I didn’t know you could literally fight teeth, but there you are.

Also, while playing I encountered two effects I was unfamiliar with. Here are their definitions:

Hexproof: a keyword ability that prevents a permanent or player from being the target of spells or abilities played by opponents. It chiefly appears in green, and to a lesser extent in white and blue.

Indestructible: If a permanent is indestructible, rules and effects can’t destroy it. Such permanents are not destroyed by lethal damage, and they ignore the lethal-damage state-based action. Rules or effects may cause an indestructible permanent to be sacrificed, put into a graveyard, or exiled. (Yeah, that’s clear as mud!)
